The Mid-event survey time:

1. What are you reading right now?

Little Dorrit by Charles Dickens and Star Gate by Andre Norton

2. How many books have you read so far?

I have finish two books actually, since I am counting the Louis L'Amour CDs.  I am working on others.

3. What book are you most looking forward to for the second half of the Read-a-thon?

I am really looking forward to finishing Little Dorrit and Casting the Runes by M.R. James

4. Did you have to make any special arrangements to free up your whole day?

I have been unable to free up the whole day.  I was able to listen to audio books as I was doing other things though. :D  I think that will count?

5. Have you had many interruptions? How did you deal with those?

Any interruptions, I just dealt with them and tried to finish as quickly as possible.

6. What surprises you most about the Read-a-thon, so far?

Nothing so far

7. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year?

I really am unable to usually come up with suggestions when asked.  It is usually when unasked that I give suggestions. :D

8. What would you do differently, as a Reader or a Cheerleader, if you were to do this again next year?

I would try to free up more time, I guess

9. Are you getting tired yet?

Nope. I'm wide awake still.  Ask me in about 5 hours though. :D

10. Do you have any tips for other Readers or Cheerleaders, something you think is working well for you that others may not have discovered? 


Nope, nothing yet
